    more recenly however it has started to studder pretty bad whenever i come to a complete stop from highway speed....could this be the idle air control valve??</div>

    This is just a guess, but the same thing happened to my Caravan until I changed out the spark plugs - maybe something to consider?

    I've replaced...

    Spark Plugs
    Wires
    PCV
    all vacuum hoses
    Cleaned Throttle Body...

    Here's the thing...

    It ONLY happens if I don't let the car warm up enough.

    Example: I start the car and drive it to work (takes me less than 10 minutes). I work for 4 hours and then take my lunch break. When I start my car, it's OK. The very next stop light, it vibrates.

    I just think it's normal now because I don't drive it long enough after a cold overnight start.

    It has never happened after I drive my car for more than 30 minutes.
